I think with any surgery you can gain wait back. The only thing with the best numbers in regards to weight gain is the DS. I haven't heard anyone gaining all their weight back, but I mean if you stretch out your sleeve or your pouch, and you eat crap it will happen. If a person hasn't learned to eat right within the eighteen to twenty four months, then it can start to come back on. My friend gained about forty pounds back, and she had the RNY. Thing is she gained that back after about nine years of her surgery, still gaining alot at any date post op sucks. Thing is she doesn't eat that great all the time.

Isn't perrier orange, seltzer water?

I like your disclaimer. Lol. I usually put them in my posts as well.

Yayyyy. Looks like you can still keep the original date! Yaaaaay!

I'm 282 5'6 now. Didn't know we are starting out the same D1NOnlySexyLady. Lol.. Awesomeness. How are things going regarding your surgery?

You look great greetings.

How did you lose the weight pre-op? Water aerobics too?

You guys look great!!!

Wooohooo! That's on my bday. Congrats.

Anyone have any torrid dresses/tops in a size 3-4x? I am looking for this cherry dress in particular, and after posting this I will do a google search. Any cute torrid clothes, please put the link in here to your ebay so I can check them out. I plan on buying some clothes for a few occasions for April.

Yay, for stabbing with a fork!! Just kidding... Or maybe ;)

Charlotte Russe is so cheap isnt it?! They have cheap shoes, and other cute stuff. Skinny stores always have great prices in comparison. I can't wait to spend $5 on a shirt. Man... Once I get small... I'm going to be feeling so whell, acting like my sh*t doesn't stink. Hehehehe. Just loving it. I even recently lowered my goal. I mean my major goal is still the same, but I would be happy with a size 8.

Not a huge drinker. I usually only buy one drink and it's strong. A long island iced tea. It gets me "nice."

Oooo.. He was doing it before? Is he plus size too? Sometimes when you eat to fast you can't enjoy the food. Is he waiting until he is starving to eat? Either way he still needs to respect you when you guys eat. That's just rude.

I too am not worried about incision scars since my c section scar looks "really good" when all the doctors see it. It didnt darken or anything. My stomach go up almost all the wasy, so even if I have the tummy tuck I will still have them.

I know that skinny people have stretchmarks.What I have heard from a sleever is she tried laser surgery and it helped her scars, and stretchmarks, so I'm trying them.

Where are yours, and you going to rock them after you're sleeved? Do you rock them now? I have them, and I intend on getting lasering to see how that works on them. Mine are on my shoulders, my stomach, sides, and my arms. I use to use cocoa butter and the generic maderma but didn't work well enough for me. What are you going to do with yours. I'd like to say that after I'm sleeved that I will rock mine, but not too sure. I do know that I probably wont fuss to much about the ones on my shoulders despite they still bug me.

I originally want the RNY. Then decided on the sleeve because I like my NSAIDS when I get my monthlies, or in general. So what was left was the sleeve. Recently I looked into the DS, but I'm a vegeterian, and I didn't like the idea of all of those pill pill pills. The plus with the sleeve is if for whatever unfortunate reason the weight I want off doesn't come off, I can get the DS, although it's best to do that all at once. I am pretty comfident though the VSG will work for me.

I learned a new phrase for them "bingo wings."

I know my mom will be such a hattttter! When I was smaller she gave me no words of encouragement. Occasionally she would say "that top looks nice," but it was almost like she didn't want to. She has issues with emotions. I was looking pretty good. God help her once I get down to that weight, minus sixty more, plus I'm cute.. Good grief. Sorry, just had to toot my own horn for a second.

Like today someone asked if I knew about the raw food diet. I told them yes and declined. Mind you, she is average size and I don't think was ever big. It's a little different when someone has experienced it first hand. Besides, WLS is a tool to help.

Honestly I would have flipped. The story with the trash in your food is kind of crazy! In his mind he probably is thinking you are full or soon to be so he just put his stuff in there. He really was thinking at the moment. If he does it again then I don't know what to tell you. I'd just say, stand your ground, and ask for consideration. In general regardless if I'm done or the person is done first at the table, we start getting ready to leave together.

I promise to try my best. I won't be perfect but I am going to make the best of it.

Well I ask because I want to lose some now. My surgery is in July.

Congrats all. I do notice people include pre-op weight sometimes. I know for me I will count from the day of surgery, but I do understand that some people lost some weight pre-op, but for me telling how much I way from day of is easier. To me any weight loss even if it's slow or not it's good still. I think everyone wants to lose it fast, but patience patience patience. I will be telling myself the same thing because I have noooooo patience!!
